All right gentlemen youve been waiting all summer long for a world acclaimed DUCATI 996 and here it is at the best price you will ever find on one.Yes this isthe nicest bikes that DUCATI makes.In fact, it is one of the nicest bikes period!As you can tell from the pictures however, the bike was in an accident so it will need some work.The damage includes but may not be limited to: all of the plastic is rashed and cracked but some of it is fixable, the tank is dented and rashed on the left side, the left clip on is bent down, the clutch and front brake levers are broken, the headlamp bucket is cracked, the left front foot peg is broken, the lower triple clamp is cracked in a couple of places but the forks and frame are straight, there is a little bit of rash on the front wheel, the safety switch is broken on the kickstand, the front fender is scratched in a couple of places, the headlights are broken, both of the front brake calipers are loose probably due to warped rotors, and that is about all I can find wrong with this bike.The starter button will not engage the starter so we are unable to start the bike.However, there are a couple of plugs on the left side of the bike that we cannot find their mate and on the right side of the bike there is a bracket with nothing bolted to it and a hose is unattached.This may be why the starter wont engage but we are not sure.Maybe some of you Ducati experts out there know what it is.It only has 3970 miles on it and is like brand new.The frame, forks, wheels, etc. are all straight.Where else are you going to find a 2001 Ducati 996 for this kind of money?Just fix it ride or race it man.This bike comes with a salvage title so please check with your local Department of Motor Vehicle before buying.I have the bike for sale locally and if it sells I will end the auction early!!!Please email or call if you have any questions and we will work out all the details. $6900
